Version 4.3 - using flash charting instead of JSChart

dndchai

I have a number of searches that have a lot of data points on the x-axis. The new JSChart pushes the extra points off of the graph. What's the easiest way of getting these searches to use the old flash charting instead of the default JSChart? Thanks.

In simple XML, you can flip the chart to Flash by setting an option that is not yet supported by JSChart. For example, this will get you the Flash version of the chart:

<option name="charting.scaleX">1</option>

Thanks. I had been looking for an option that would work and chartin.scaleX does the trick. Thanks.

If it's advanced XML, you can edit the XML and replace "JSChart" with "FlashChart".

Thanks, but I've been using the simple XML. I'm looking for something really easy to do.
